In Which I *Think* My Husband Liked His Birthday...

He reminds me of Kimball Cho from The Mentalist. Cho is ALWAYS serious.

Still, I always try to make his birthday special. I ordered him this awesome cake from a fellow military wife:

No, it's not because he's my lobster like on the Friends episode. I mean, he IS, but I got this cake because we always laugh when the lobster dances on Family Guy.

I think it amused him. He went, "Is that lobster on the cake?" when I showed him.

He wanted to go to Joe's Crab Shack for his birthday dinner. I do not like seafood but he loves it.

No, really, he does love his king crab legs, despite his face.

I was all, "Be silly! Come on! It's your birthday!"

Well, it's something...

Since I had to sit in a room that reeked of seafood, I ordered this:

That would be a pina colada. Of course as I sipped it, Tommy kept going, "Are you going to get drunk in front of us? That's inappropriate." I assured him I would not get drunk and he'd fall silent and go, "Are you feeling okay? Can you see me?"

Tom seemed to enjoy his meal.

Then it was time to return home and open presents! I would have opened presents first thing but he was all, "I'll just wait until later."

Perry for the Disney Infinity game. Natalie makes us play with her.

A Cleveland Browns hat. And yes, he's well aware that they suck, but each year he hopes..

A Cleveland Indians grill cover. Again. See above.

And a thingy so he can listen to music from his iPad.

He said he liked everything but sometimes it's hard to tell when he doesn't squeal or jump around with excitement like I do.

I'm the silly/emotional one in my relationship too. For a long time, Jared would say something was "pretty good" when I asked him if he liked it or not. I had to explain "pretty good" is worse than "good", so stop saying it!!!

You two seem like the perfect couple, serious and silly! I'm sure he loved it, especially watching you not get drunk. What sacrifices you make for him, having to smell seafood and not wanting any of it!!! Oh, and Happy belated Mother's Day.

These picture definitely portray his seriousness! I can't quite imagine not getting excited about things, but I know a couple guys like that. I think Angel and I are BOTH the silly one in the couple, so that could be a problem...

LOL! I love the balance between you have with your husband. He's crazy serious and your crazy weird. I'm crazy weird too- so I love that quality in you! lol Birthday well done! And cool cake, you're pretty thoughtful
